guys..

My co-worker Sarah and I were talking today about guys... Really the talk started out with our dads.. Her dad is in and out of town with work and she says she misses him and gets nervous that something will happen when he's gone that he could fix.... She said that she isn't sure how she's going to handle it when she loses her dad.  I told her I feel the same way about my dad!!  My dad is sooo funny, he can fix anything, and beneath his rough exterior, he's just a softy.  Which led us to talk about the difference in guys now a days and guys like our dads... In my last oh 18 years I've dated all sorts of guys... guys who could fix cars.. guys who could build things... computer guys... musical guys... artsy guys... cowboy guys....
all these guys, and they are all good at what they do, but that's it... if they can fix my car, they can't put in wood floors... If they can re-do my bathroom, they can't fix my computer...
Though men my dads age didn't have the computer to figure out... they sure can do everything else... If my car has something wrong, my dad can probably fix it...with his age, it's more of, do i want him to fix it... My dad put in my new lights, and he is going to be coming down to put in my new ceiling fans.... he put in my garbage disposal, and kitchen sink... he put in the bamboo floors in my bathroom and a new vanity mirror, my new bathroom sink and faucet.... Where are the guys that can do all that for me???
My dad is an awesome man, and I'm soooo lucky to have him as a father!  I wish there were jack of all trades like him out there now a days!!
